    I'd like Willpower.

    Don't appreciate the snot-nosed newbies line. I've only played for seven months and still don't know crap.

    Grats.

    It sounds like he's just seeing objects under the water for the first time. I had that happen when I added my graphics card. And yes, before, I had the horrible reflections that make no sense.

    AAAhg! Hyperstrike is Flamin' Trolla!!

    This stuff always freaks me out. Three different names. I can't keep up.

    Edited to add:
    Hyper, the word needs to get out that themarket channel is generally how we find each other, or via SG. The two new people last night, I jotted down their toon name but not their global, were really interested in doing fire/rad teams. Man, we mopped some CoT before we joined the farm team. [though, to give the archer credit, she unlocked it last night and was not normally a farmer. If she was, she wouldn't die so much.]

    Organica, I got in about right on time. Even if you're late, we weren't doing anything really real last night. Not TF. Just started with Radio then switched to some PI stuff which eventually unlocked BM and we all just turned into farmers, kinda. Uncoordinated death farmers. [No, it wasn't that bad. But rather than waiting for AM to get up, I was waiting for Mutation to.]

    Speaking of KB, what the heck magnitude is the kb you get off Rikti bombs. Higher than 10 it looks like.
  8. Postagulous
    I think stone/ice would fit the bill. Though, maybe not PURE enough.

    The logical thing to get your word out is to take one of the billboards that faces Atlas. Those should cost 20m a day. 10m a week would be one lying on it's side in Boomtown.

    It's not a great set, but I like it. Some of the key features are that burst has snipe range with a single range enh. AoE and Cones. Buckshot, Flamethrower, M30, Full Auto, they're handy. Burst, which I can't stand the sound of anymore, is a good no-kb that's up often. You end up spamming it a little as a filler.

    Updating graphics would be nice, but not to backflip type stuff. Gun to the eye would be a nice touch. Not sure if we have an overhand throw that could replace M30.

    No one will get excited one way or another, so I figure the devs won't update it.

    Top 3 secondaries?

    I don't know if this is PvE top three for anyone else, but I love /wp.

    Some will try to tweak things, like getting that crap out of brawl, but this build will work very well.

    It looks like it will cost around 3 billion.

    If they do, then optional, please, optional.

    I don't have a screenshot and it wasn't me, but I did rip myself off a while back. Can I have maybe 30m of it?

  15. Postagulous
    Hold right mouse button and put it where you want.

    And while we're on the subject, I would have sworn a few months ago I was able to have the camera pointed down while I few level, looking for badguys. and I controlled myself normally. I wasn't pointing downward.

    How did, or just did, I do this?

    I thought 100m per week was too low. We don't want anyone to be able to do this. With it as low as 100m, I could take one out every other week if I was marketing at the time. I would only take 5b to take over a billboard for a year.

    Prices should be high so that either heavy marketers can afford it or groups of people would take them out.

    Topics would have to be related to the game. No McD ads. Advertizing a AE# or Tanker Tuesday or

    Demonic Blood Sample is not Worth Over 1k!!!
    Bid 666 for a Better Tomorrow.

    And, as far as pricing...Location location location. One week in Atlas is worth nearly a whole year in Faultline. Probably over a few months in Galaxy [which should be nuked in a future storyline].

    Yeah, I'd like rented billboards. But not animated. I'd see if I could get a Katana club up.
  17. Postagulous
    I know the -kb isn't needed, you told me. I just didn't feel like fixing it considering the word was already out.

    I'm not making an ice/ice currently. I have like 30 alts and need to just plain stop.

    I'm using 1.6.2.0 it came out three days ago. I wouldn't think it would matter to an older build.

    You never run out of endurance? You aren't fighting hard enough.

    The only toons I have that have totally no end worries are /wp.

    Also, my mids seems to be a little off. I flipped 4xKC and 2xSlugfest to 3xSlugfest and 3x[that weak one with the def for energy/neg] and the energies numbers didn't change in the total. Not sure how to refresh...I quit editing my build [not yours].

    At least we aren't to the point we can buy a LotG set for $4 [or 624 Hero Points]

I was thinking Electric might be alright since it has a chance to give me end to help with DA end problems. Let me know what has worked for you. TYVM!
    Well, Electric would also help with the AoE, if memory serves.

    Oops, because I put it in this one too. Also, didn't notice Glacial Armor had a 60% perception until after I put the Rectified Reticle unique in Build Up.

    I have three slots free. Also, I didn't take the powers exactly in a growing way, but in a respec way.

    The more I mess with Ice and research it, wow, it's an impressive set.

    If looking at my slotting you go, "Hey, this is a damage, why did he put so many Basilisks all over the place?" Just hold shift and right click it and you'll see the first try I had.

    I went for mitigation first, then damage. Bonuses were for def until there was enough, then rech or recovery. If you hate Mako, then you hate Mako. Sorry, this build seemed to need it.

    Not sure if I broke the rule of fives.

    I'm done. Just glad no one noticed my work this last hour has been on a CoH Ice/Ice tank. Maybe I should take a nap and see if they notice. It's very boring here, my co-worker is vaccuming his floor.

    OK, I took that data chunk and played with it. I need to move the powers around to get what I want. Pretend I was able to slot Block of Ice just like Freezing Touch.

    Also, wow. I've never considered Ice/Ice but it's easy to cap this thing.

    Word.


    NR allows me to put off travel powers forever, though I pick up Raptor Pack before level 10 and have that Jump Pack that came with, I think GvE. It has great synchronicity [if that's the right word] with NR. Though I never see anyone but myself Ninja Jumping through the sky.

    And, I pick up rec friend since I'm a nice guy. And don't feel like waiting on their slow [butt].
